Globally, we have less than half the amount of arable land per capita available for production since 1950

Let's pretend the Green Revolution never happened, why don't we?

The outome of all of this will be that the large parts of the world that currently haughtily refuse genetically modified crops will have to change. Hardly a "crisis."

Choices to solve this “crisis” include:
1. mandatory roll out of genetically improved crops when seed is supplied to the third world when they request crop assistance
2. lifting of all import bans by all countries that ban GM crops
3. kill ethanol subsidies in US and start inconveniencing Alaskan caribou instead
4. Get rid of the tariff on Brazilian ethanol, so we can import cost effective stuff
5. Get rid of limits on working at home, when some municipalities ban you running a business out of a home “office” (more working at home, fewer drivers)
6. Plant a garden.
